“I really appreciate the time and care. Emily took with taking care of my babies. Being able to watch them in my home meant so much to me with me traveling it keeps the dogs feeling comfortable and I really appreciated that from her. I can tell that the dogs really enjoyed her and the time they were able to spend they were just as happy when I left as when I got home. I think her so much will definitely be booking with her again.”

“This was our first experience using Rover so my wife and I were slightly nervous, however after meeting Spirit and seeing how she was with Roland we decided to give it a shot. While we were gone we received pictures and videos daily letting us know our boy was in the best possible hands. Roland can’t wait for the next time!”

“Elizabeth house sat with two of our dogs. (one being a large Presa Canario) She was exactly on time both meeting them beforehand and again when we were leaving on our trip. My wife and I were both very confident we made a good choice. It is easy to tell Elizabeth is a true animal lover and also very aware and professional. Our dogs loved her and looked happy and comfortable in the pictures she sent. Our house was left as clean or cleaner than we left. She was great communicating with. We almost hate to leave such a great review out of fear she will be booked when we take more trips. 100% we will be going to her first for any of our dog sitting needs.”

About: I'll give your pet the attention, care and playtime they need so they can have an amazing time while you are away on vacation or business Pet care works perfectly into my daily routine as a Movement & Health coach. I can drop by and check on your pet multiple times per day and even stay over. I do not plan on boarding animals at my residence. I am open to housing sitting with your animal. It's better for the animal to be in the environment that they are use to.

About: What sets me apart is that I truly treat every pet like they’re my own. I take the time to learn their personality, routines, and little quirks so they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’m very attentive and dependable, and I’ll always keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your fur baby is safe and happy. I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone new, and my goal is to make that experience as stress-free as possible for both of you! So i currently am i xray tech and ma at Baptist urgent care in Little Rock, and my schedule is put out to where i work a couple days in a row, and then I’m off for a couple days and I get bored with those days I’m off and I want something I love to do! So in my house I have 3 dogs, I have a fenced in yard and I also have sun shade around my entire fence! My top priority is my dogs safety no matter what! And with someone’s else’s babies their safety always comes first!

About: I’ve loved animals since before I could remember! I grew up in Scott on land with dogs, cats, horses, goats, birds, and fish! Now I have a border collie husky mix, he’s 4 years old. :) My work schedule differs every week so message me to see my availability. I consistently work from 7-4 Monday through Friday and the rest of the time will change! I have a very large unfenced yard where there is plenty of space for dogs to be themselves. I have plenty of toys that I could bring with me or have at my house for boarding. I could crate your dog if needed (not required at all).

FAQs for House Sitting - Hensley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 251 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hensley. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Hensley walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Hensley maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Hensley choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
